Primary 2 are all set to welcome their family and friends to their class assembly this afternoon. Their presentation is all about friendship (something P2 are great at!) and the boys and girls are really excited about sharing their learning with their guests through words and music. As usual, the assembly begins at 2.00pm, followed by refreshments and a visit to the children’s classroom.

I had a great day in Primary 6 yesterday and was sooooooo impressed with the children’s discursive writing (William Wallace: villain or hero?) and the huge enthusiasm and skill they showed during maths. The thing I particularly liked was that the children were not afraid to make mistakes in their maths, but saw them as learning opportunities. The five members of the focus group who spoke to me at the end of the day said how much they enjoyed their learning in P6 and how proud they are of the progress they have made this year… and, of course, we managed a selfie!
